    • QUOTE: Like DUC 2003, DUC 2004 used newswire/paper documents from the TDT and TREC collections.
      • Tasks 1 and 2 were essentially the same as in DUC 2003, so that DUC 2003 data could be used for training.
      • Tasks 3 and 4 were new in that they explored summarization from noisy input produced by (Arabic to English) machine translation.
      • Task 5 involved summaries focused by a question and so represents a blend of the third and fourth tasks from DUC 2003.
